Again as a personal note only I'll add here that on my list of countries to be entrusted with nukes Iran is about as far from the top as it gets. I doubt it's just my take on it though. I'd wager that if the entire world's population were polled about this the end result would heavily favor denying Iran this capability. In looking back over their history, especially the last 30 years or so, tell me why they deserve to be trusted?
